? about a T/C carbine rifle
« on: November 25, 2010, 05:10:39 PM »
I bought a SS T/C  21"  rifle with a --223 barrel,I am wondering if anyone has or seen a 21" or 24" --243  barrel for this gun.--thanks

Sounds like you have a Contender unless that's a non-factory barrel.  The older generation had 21" tapered carbines.  The G2s are 23" heavy barrels.  That being said, I don't believe the Contender is suitable for the .243 round because of pressures.  You would need to look at the Encore to shoot this caliber...
Can't hardly wait on deer season and the 2016 Presidential Elections...
